Kentucky Owl Confiscated Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed April 17, 2021 (edited May 1, 2021)First impression: very smooth! Wheat and oak up front and a very interesting spice combination that follows. I get some cinnamon, licorice, pepper, and anise. Nice oily finish that lasts awhile. -
I was pretty stoked when I caught a glimpse of this $30 10 year bourbon. I will say it’s not my typical profile I aim for. Very brown sugar and caramel forward. I appreciate the little rye, because otherwise it would be too sweet. I get the Caribbean spice and more brown sugar with the finish. Overall, phenomenal value and something I hope to keep on hand for friends/family that can’t take the heat of my typical ryes.

Noble Oak Double Oak Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed February 22, 2021 (edited April 17, 2021)Cool story bourbon. Nose: vanilla and oak. Very woody throughout in the flavor. Tastes a little ethanol early. But finishes with nice vanilla and cherry. -
Old Hamer Cask Strength Straight Bourbon
Bourbon — Indiana , USA
Reviewed February 7, 2021 (edited July 23, 2021)Batch no.16: 118.5 proof Nose is modest for a bourbon that carries that much bunch. Some oak is the predominant scent. That oak carries through with throughout. Warm as expected from a cask strength. Subtle vanilla and tobacco flavor towards the tail end.
